Healing Ribbons, a Native American women-led nonprofit dedicated to promoting holistic wellbeing, cultural revitalization, and positive cultural identity among intergenerational Native American women, Two-Spirit relatives, and families, proudly presents its fourth annual The Art of Healing: Stories, Stitches & the Sacred Fashion Show.
This celebration is the culmination of Healing Ribbons’ year-long Art of Healing program and showcases regalia created by participants. Each piece carries a story with color, fabric, ribbon, and design reflecting personal journeys, identity, family, culture, and connection. Guests are invited to experience an afternoon where storytelling takes the runway and art, tradition, community, and healing come together in a powerful celebration.
American Sign Language interpretation will be provided at this program.
